हैल्थ इंडेक्स 2019
देश के बड़े प्रदेशों में सबसे खराब स्वास्थ्य व्यवस्था उत्तर प्रदेश और बिहार में है। खास बात यह है कि इन दोनों राज्यों की स्थिति सुधरने के बजाय बिगड़ती जा रही है। नीति आयोग के हैल्थ इंडेक्स 2019 पर ये दोनों राज्य देशभर में 21 बड़े प्रदेशों की रैंकिंग में सबसे निचले पायदान पर हैं जबकि केरल पहले नंबर पर, आंध्र प्रदेश दूसरे और महाराष्ट्र तीसरे नंबर पर हैं। वहीं सात संघ शासित क्षेत्रों के हैल्थ इंडेक्स रैंकिंग में चंडीगढ़ पहले नंबर पर है जबकि दिल्ली पांचवें स्थान पर है।

A panel recommendation for MSMEs
A committee formed by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), headed by former SEBI Chairman U.K. Sinha, has recommended a ₹5,000 crore distressed asset fund for micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs).

Crew-7 mission to space station
GS Paper - 3 (Space Technology)

Four astronauts from four countries, including the US, Denmark, Japan, and Russia, launched aboard a SpaceX rocket towards the International Space Station (ISS) from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. This was the first US take-off in which all the astronauts atop the spacecraft belonged to a different country — until now, NASA had always included two or three of its own on its SpaceX flights. The mission has been known as Crew-7.

Why has such a diverse group of astronauts gone to the ISS?

The Crew-7 mission is a result of the ongoing cooperation among different countries in space, especially since the launch of the space station in 1998.
The International Space Station Program involves the US, Russia, Canada, Japan, and the participating countries of the European Space Agency, and is one of the most ambitious international collaborations ever attempted.
The program “brings together international flight crews, multiple launch vehicles, globally distributed launch, operations, training, engineering, and development facilities; communications networks, and the international scientific research community”.
What is the mission?

The Crew-7 is the eighth flight operated by NASA and Elon Musk-owned SpaceX as part of the agency’s commercial crew program, which has been taking astronauts to the ISS since SpaceX’s first crewed mission in 2020.
During their stay at the space station, the Crew-7 astronauts will conduct more than 200 science experiments and technology demonstrations to prepare for missions to the Moon, Mars, and beyond.
The research will include a collection of microbial samples from the exterior of the space station.
The team will also analyse how sleeping in the microgravity environment differs from Earth by examining astronauts’ brain waves while they sleep.
Yet another experiment will look at the formation of biofilms in wastewater on the space station, which could be key to finding better ways to recycle water for drinking and hygiene while in space (Yes, astronauts have long used recycled sweat and urine to drink and shower on the station).
